I have always had a love for animals, my dream when I was a kid was to be a Vet. So naturally over the years I have had a lot of pets. As I grew into an adult I found myself drawn to Bully breeds after my dad rescued a Pit mix that was our family dog for years.
Bull Terriers were a breed I had ogled over for years but had never owned. That is until I met the man that would become my husband and his Bull Terrier Ruca. Ruca was very attached to Ricki and not very fond of women, but for some reason she decided to accept me into the house. Now don’t get me wrong it took a while… I was astounded by the level of personality that she had and the odd ball things she would do. For example, until she started to trust me she would not take food from me that her Dad had not given her first and she would not go outside with me alone (don’t we all wish that kids would hold so strict to this!).
After a few months of dating Ricki was feeling bad because Ruca was getting less attention than she was used to, so naturally we decided to get her a friend. And what better friend is there to get a Bull Terrier than a second Bull Terrier.
Hence Snoopy (a.k.a. Snoop) found his way into our home! Snoop is definitely our “Wild Child”! He is three years old now but is still quite the puppy in so many ways.
Last but certainly not least is Yoda. As Ricki now likes to “Bull Terriers are like Potato Chips, you can’t have just one”. Yoda is 2.5 years old and is the coolest “cat” in the house. He loves all things that involve snuggling and limited activity. Yoda and Ruca are quite the little pair of love birds.
